If I have a little time in the morning, I like making Asparagus Salad Topped with Poached Eggs for breakfast. Asparagus and eggs are good sources of selenium, a mineral renowned for boosting the immune system. https://www.mdvip.com//blog/asparagus-salad-topped-poached

I like grilling during the summer and making this this heart-healthy Grilled Tuna with Olive Relish. It’s an easy recipe, rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which can help lower triglycerides, blood pressure and risk for blood clotting. https://www.mdvip.com/about-mdv//grilled-tuna-olive-relish

Here’s another of my favorite avocado recipes Raspberry, Avocado and Mango Salad. The avocados are high in antioxidants and vitamin E, which help protect skin from sun damage and raspberries, a natural anti-carcinogen, anti-mutagen and cancer inhibitor help guard against skin cancer. http://www.mdvip.com/raspberry-avocado-mango-salad

I eat avocados throughout the year, but I usually make this Stuffed Avocados recipe during the summer. It’s a quick and light perfect for hot summer nights and the high content of antioxidants and vitamin E in the avocados helps protect the skin from sun damage. http://www.mdvip.com/stuffed-avocados
